It is a large estate at 26 acres. I read about Weymouth Center in Our State Magazine and knew I wanted to visit. When I learned Thomas Wolfe stayed here that got me here sooner as I am fascinated by his life. The Boyd House is a great building to explore. The Boyds opened their house over 100 years ago to build a community for writers and artists and those with open minds to come together. The Literary Hall of Fame was nice to explore as I was introduced to new authors while seeing some familiar names. The grounds are lovely and peaceful to explore. Weymouth has a writer's residence where authors can go and work on their writing. Weymouth Equestrians has underserved teens ride and help with horse care. While I was there, a crew was getting tents set up for a wedding the next day. Also I heard that there was going to be live music on Sunday. It seems like such a great venue and the organization greatly benefits the community.

What a great place for a date night and the vibe in the studio really allowed us to un-WINE! The…read moreartist we had was so nice and her assistant was also very helpful to all the customers making sure we weren't too far off on our paintings haha Price: Extremely affordable date Night location. $50 for two and BYOB! Price includes two separate paintings that you and your significant other will paint in class. Ambience: Well lit in order to work on your masterpiece. It was neat how the date night class was separate from the bigger room that was utilized for more of an actual painting class. My wife and I painted two separate paintings but when we put them together it made one big painting. Drink as much wine as you want during the class and good conversation with other customers. Very laid back atmosphere with music and outgoing staff. I look forward to returning here in the future.

I like the idea of this but our experience tonight was not great. There are two rooms for painting…read more One is a big, bright, room. The easels are set up with plenty of rom between them and the music is playing in it. Next to that room is a tiny little side room with a long table and all of the easels are crammed next to each other. There was barely room between each easel for us to put our mason jars with water for the paintbrushes. Our instructor went WAY too fast so we all just ended up doing our own thing. Meanwhile the group in the other room was listening to music laughing and having a great time. I feel like it would have been a much more enjoyable experience if we weren't stacked on top of each other and if we didn't feel like outcasts from the other group. I'll probably be sticking to the beads and brushes in Aberdeen after this class.
